That's hella lot of work man. Good job and it's looking good

SpooledupRacing 09-26-2008 12:25 PM

thank you very much... tonight I plan to clean up the diff, put in the new mmr bushings and then drain the diff.

after that I may light the rear subframe on fire to in order to get those bushings out. (then I am done with bushings YEAAA!)

SpooledupRacing 09-26-2008 07:12 PM

Ok well I got half done tonight

I got the front struts all put together and mounted in the car, I got the rear struts all put together but of course not in the car until after I get the subframe in..

Tomorrow I will paint the rear diff, then push in the MMR bushings

If I have my way.. tomorrow I will clean up the subframe, paint the subframe, slam in the new bushings and then start putting the control arms, diff and other stuff back on it.


I also begun to pull the interior out.. I got the seats out, the rear carpet, all the rear plastic, the front pillars and door sills, the headliner is loose and I still need to remove the front carpet and dash.

I will get pics of the interior once it is all out..

SpooledupRacing 10-04-2008 12:29 PM

Ok I got the MMR mounts in, painted the rear subframe black and then attached the control arms, trailing arms, and camber links
